That's absolutely a foul ball. That's crazy.

At some point Schneider comes down and says, boys it's time to turn the game off.

George looks up him and says "please coach, just one more inning!"

Schneider says "fine!" And all the boys cheer!

The one on the right is a classic but what is the context of the one on the left?

I have settled on this:

I just want 4 to 7 games of Buck Martinez saying Spencer Torkelson

So Jay's fam, are we hoping for Detroit or Seattle?
I'm kind of pumped that Jay's fans will be able to get to those games (no matter who wins) en mass 🙃 But I don't have enough roster knowledge for either team to know which we prefer?

Any other postseason I'd be making a "the Jays are the heavy favorite to be the runner-up" joke but my focus is very much elsewhere!

I've been watching baseball since the Blue Jays were birthed and only now learned that a "Bullpen Game" means you put the entire Bullpen on the mound at the same time. How that doesn't lead to more pitcher head injuries, I don't know but, hey, it worked.

lmao, tell em Buck!

Buck Martinez, the silver-haired broadcaster of the Toronto Blue Jays, was a popular man while wheeling his luggage out of Yankee Stadium on Wednesday night.

As Martinez made his way toward the bus, team staffers were hugging him and congratulating him as if he had just blasted a couple of home runs to send Toronto to the ALCS.

“You were proven right, Buck,” one shouted.

“They f—– it up, didn’t they?” Martinez responded.
